Ms. Li Shanshan Arrested by Tangshan Domestic Security Division

2011-11-18

Ms. Li Shanshan is a Falun Gong practitioner and is the wife of Mr. Zhou Xiangyang. Officers from Tangshan Domestic Security Division, in collaboration with Gangbei Prison in Tianjin, arrested her and her husband on March 5th, 2011.

Ms. Li openly spoke out about her husband's detention in Gangbei Prison after she was released. She wrote an open letter to appeal for her husband, stating that he had been wrongly sentenced and was suffering terribly. This letter, entitled “A Young Couple's Journey: Zhou Xiangyang's Fiancee Appeals Seven Years for His Release,” was published and carried by multiple media outlets outside of China. Many people from Mr. Zhou's hometown were moved after reading the letter, and signed a petition originated by Ms. Li to demand his release. The petition also states that those responsible for this persecution must be brought to justice. As of late September, nearly 2,300 people have signed the petition.

Officers from Tangshan Domestic Security Division arrested Ms. Li again on October 29th, 2011, while she was at Xintiandi Supermarket. She is currently detained in Fengrun Brainwashing Centre.
